I mentioned moth balls before... But you can't get them these days.
Naphthalene flakes definitely banned.
Best I could do was the little hanging cage thingies

Ah, mothballs as one word.
Maybe that's where I was going wrong. On here at least 😄 Those poor moths.

If you have a moth ball in each hand, what do you have?

 

A bluddy big moth!

Really?  Since when have they been banned and do you know why?

 

I've never thought about it and don't go looking for them but that is a surprise.

OH and me go by what our council says...........there are so many possums up here in the hills. The council lends out the cages the possums are re located, they are not hurt in any way, taking them to another part of the hills is not in any way hurting the possum.

 

As far as I am concerned, what the council says goes, I might add, that the Yarra Ranges Council covers alot if not most of the hills area, where the largest number of possums are..............

 

Things might be different down in the suburbs, I have no idea, I just know that the council lets people move the possums.........and they are in no way hurt and it is not cruel.

Glee, I think blankets and clothing stored in naphthalene and camphor had the potential to be toxic to babies and children.

Mothballs are still on sale in Coles in NSW.

Hardware stores like bunnings sell mothballs and Naphalene flakes.
I also found mothballs for sale in the cheap shops (like the '$2 shop' type shops)

 

I would never use mothballs for storing baby gear. I wouldnt put them around my garden to rid pests or animals from the graden either.
But up in the roof cavity, they are fantastic  🙂
